I sat up TVH on a new server. I had some old recordings, which are still on the NAS. The new recording directory is direct on the server.
I copied the dvr/log-files from the old installation to the new one and I corrected the path in the "filename". The video files were not touched or moved.
I though, I had success, the old recordings were shown in the "finshed recordings"-tab. But when I run Kodi, all old recordings are in the base-folder, not in subfolders. The log-files contain the "directory"-entry, but only new recordings are sorted in the subfolders.
In the past I had differnt versions of TVH, now I use 4.2.4-23~gceaf330cb.
I could not spot a difference in the log file of a new recording, which is sorted in a subfolder, and a old one, which is sorted in the base folder, although the "directory"-entry is there.
